Hmmm around 23 weeks!! As soon as I had my daughter, with a lot of off days of course. What sorts if foods are best to increase kcals with? I know it's a silly q but that's where I struggle. Without eating ice cream, cakes ect ha I don't know what else to eat.
-
I log everything, good and bad. Embarrassing when I have an off day but it has to be done to make me realise!!

I was loosing around 1lb per week if not maintaining at 1200kcals. I need to did the right kcals I think which is why I was trying to workout my tdee. I don't want to get any slimmer, it's just fat loss around the tummy to neaten it up abit

I am LOVING the idea of eating more :-))))

Does anyone know how to find out my tdee? I use a fitbit!

Around waist and hips. Ok, time to chill and get on with it!! New changes always cause some confusion. Ile keep at it, I can cope with a few extra inches for now. Was just worried I was doing something really wrong which was going to make me keep gaining

I started almost 2 weeks ago but didn't start stronglifts until mon. I started gaining as soon as I started listing, could it be water?iv been measuring not weighing, have gained inches

Bumped wrong post. Sorry hun I'm no expert so can't give much advice but to get a flat tummy myself i increased protein, decreased carbs and increased good fats. I also did high intensity training 5x per week which really helped. Sorry I can't be of much help, hope you get some answers

I have done a lot of research, my reason for posting on here is because I am unsure of what is the best programmes to go by. Research is key to a good overall knowledge I know but how can I be certain I am reading the best information?

At the moment I work out 5x per week doing mostly hiit training and some weights. Is there so specific plan then? Should I just do each one before cardio? So day 1: chest and tri (any machinery) then 20-30 min cardio?

Thank you everyone for all your advice. I will look up 5x5 strong lifts, I am completely new to lifting so would even know where to start!

Thank you, most of my sugar comes from fruit and veg as when I snack on almonds/walnuts I don't find them as fulfilling as fruit. I also have veg every evening with my meal. Are these sugars no good?
-
Thank you, I don't workout for an longer than 40 mins. I also enjoy running which is why I haven't reduced this. Would you suggest lifting post cardio? 19% is a general target, I may get to 20 and be happy with how I look. Thanks for the advice Also I do consume at least 100g of protein daily so that's not a problem. My…

Thank you, I am trying im just finding it really hard as most my sugars come from fruit and veg. I have veg every evening with my meal and only have carbs (rice, pasta) twice a week. The rest of my carbs just come from all my other foods but I don't go over unless I'm on one of the two days I have rice or pasta. I have at…

I think the advice was to increase good fats Hun and protein and decrease carbs as much as pos.

I am going through exactly the same, it is so frustrating. I don't exercise as much as you I don't think but I am quite active. If anyone would also mind taking a look at my diary and giving some advice I would really appreciate it. Saves me putting a thread out
